R.I.P. Thuy Trang (tha yellow power ranger) werd
 

shit, i just found out she died :(....


i got this frum anutha site...

Well, I'm sure most of you have heard the sad, sad news. Thuy Trang, the talented, beautiful actress who played the beloved original Yellow Ranger Trini Kwan, died in a tragic car accident in September. Likely because of the shocking events of September 11th, some of you may have gotten this news a little late. But it's a definite fact, and a terrible shame.

I must confess, I'm not the most avid Thuy Trang fan. I didn't follow her career beyond Power Rangers, nor did I research her life before the role that rocketed her into the hearts of many youths. However, once I discovered the tragedy, I felt compelled to find out a little more about her. And I'll share my insights with you.

Thuy Trang was born in Vietnam, and traveled to the United States with her family at six years of age. However, she didn't come by plane, as many travelers do nowadays... her family came aboard a cargo ship packed with refugees. She didn't have the strongest health either, and her mother had to struggle to keep her young daughter alive during the trip. She and her family arrived on the shores of California in 1979.

Despite a rough beginning, her family managed to provide her with a relatively normal childhood thereafter. She grew up in the United States, began her study of kung fu at nine, and pursued an education in civil engineering until she caught the "acting bug."

An entire life, summarized in a few broad brushstrokes. But it does teach me something: Thuy's life is a story of triumph over tribulation. She lived a very short life, but in that life she managed to make a mark on the world. It's very difficult to find a way to change the world, even in a small way. Through her role as Trini Kwan, Thuy taught millions of young girls that they could be just as tough as the boys. That they could be smart, strong, and beautiful all at once. That they could make a difference, by organizing their friends to fight against pollution, or just providing a fun afterschool activity to keep younger kids out of trouble. Trini left a mark on many of us; me included.

Lmao.........good for her.........she stole my name son............

the yellow power ranger stupid-head :rolleyes:..

Yellow power ranger... she took my name Trini.

My philsophy exactly. And also, the red, white, and blue rangers (the colors of the American flag) were all white. So much racism when I was in 1st grade, good lord!

daymn you've made me see the 1st season of power rangers in a whole new light.....racists fuckers lol

the green ranger/silver ranger had long hair....so...so just think about that...yeah, u know you're shocked and apalled

yeah man, you raise a good point. But that subliminal racism when we were younger is fuckin staggering. I was in 6 or 7th grade aroudn this time and still didn't notice these points at the time.

dayum, trini was dope... i always wanted to mention her in a personal about K-Trini but i figured that nobody knew who she was... o well... R.I.P.
I'll always remember how she said "Sabre Toothed Tiger!!!!"

damn i hella remember her.. she's actually kinda pretty.. damn thats sad of what happend to her.. i luv that show n she was in it lol.. R.I.P..

oh shyt never realized that lol

Rest in peices.

Damn that sucks... she was dope.

Yo Trini DIED...*bows head* they should retire her sabretooth tiger and power ranger coin like teams retire jersey numbers

Notice...she died 4 years ago...and we are bugging over it now?!?

lol ^

Thats funny shit.

We gotta wait until the time is right to do this shit, ya know?

Yes. I WOULD bone the bitch in your avvy, spek.

Man, download the episode of power rangers called Forever Red... Has every red ranger on there. EVERY ONE! And apparently Tommy became a red ranger at some point, its dope though, the fight choreography is dope for power rangers.

That was mentioned already. Reading is fundamental.
